Biography

Joshua, son of Richard and Christian (Hunter) More, was baptized on May 3, 1646 in Salem, MA.[1][2] He was living in 1650 but no further records can be located.[1]

Per Mayflower Bastard page 233 n1: Of the seven children born to Richard More and Christian More, Joshua is the only one who does not turn up later in any capacity. His survival to the age of five has been inferred from a report that Richard had five children by 1650, but after that - nothing. In fact, there isn't anyone from that time and place with whom he could have been confused. The inference is that Joshua did not live past early childhood.
